In A Spirit's Face, Hunter Stowe, a gifted Aboriginal palliative care worker more comfortable with death than life, somehow connects with Jake Montour, an Aboriginal addictions counselor increasingly smothered by a panic disorder. Hunter, already terrified by her emerging dark side, struggles with her troubled past as Jake becomes the ultimate test of her true nature. Who is Hunter Stowe: therapist, lover or a false face?
Directed by Ali Joy Richardson, A Spirit's Face boasts a strong Toronto cast with Madison Walsh and Cole Avis.
Previously presented as a part of the Vancouver Fringe Festival (2013), this new production features bold new scenes and a stirring design by Andy Moro.
“Remarkable ... Carefully crafted and beautifully performed, with a message that always rings true — truth and trust are vital for any relationship to flourish."
--Monika Forberger, Entertainment Vancouver
“...A relationship of mutual challenge, boundless need, and reluctant revelation. The audience rides a see-saw as we witness first one, then the other, reveal the demons that are defeating them”
--Christian Steckler, Review Vancouver
